American Idol Concert in Ontario California!

Hi Everybody!
I hope you are enjoying your summer!  I know I am!
Last night was the American Idol concert in my area, Ontario California.  As you would expect, it was crowded, loud and filled with screaming women.  Following the tradition of past concerts, before the show started a huge movie screen showed past Idol stars and [...]

American Idol Schedule Change This Week

Hi Everyone!
I hope you are enjoying your weekend.  Taking in a college BB game or two maybe?
President Obama’s press conference has forced Fox to change around this week’s Idol shows.  For this week only, American Idol will be on Wednesday and Thursday at 8:00 p.m.  The top 10 performers will chose from 50 years of [...]

American Idol Eliminates Two Tonight

Hi Everybody,
The “new twist” is that the judges can VETO an elimination.  It has to be unanimous and they can only do it once for the entire season.  When the final five are picked, the veto disappears.  It’s an insurance policy for the American Idol producers not to lose a super performer.
Ryan starts with Michael [...]

Idol Females Not Worth A Damn Vocally

One of the frustrating things about discussing American Idol with other people who watch is that this show makes us all equal relative to technical music criticism.
I struggle to not play the I’m-a-musician-and-you’re-not card.
But I’ll be honest. I don’t think any of the Idol women are worth a damn. There is not one great voice [...]

David Archuleta Will Win American Idol 7

For the past couple of weeks, when asked who I thought brought it and who left it on American Idol, I’ve consistently said “the kid” as my pick to beat.
The kid is David Archuleta, and after Tuesday night’s rendition of John Lennon’s “Imagine,” I suspect all those who shrugged when I issued those sentiments will [...]

Archuleta, Aussie Stand Out On Guys’ Night

When you’ve got it, you’ve got it.
That’s what Simon Cowell told David Archuleta on Tuesday, minutes before he said the same things to Jason Castro and Aussie expatriate Michael Johns.
So, that would be the American Idol Top 3 from boys’ night, right?
Think again. And this year, it’s not just me judging the talent. My sainted [...]

Top 5 American Idol Auditions Of Week 1

A weekly feature on american-idol-blog.com will be my Top 5 performances of the week, usually posted on Thursdays. Because this week was comprised of Season 7’s first two audition sites, I thought I’d start by explaining how I came up with this ranking.
And, the formula could change week to week. In fact, it will.
The Idol [...]

McPhee: Another One Bites The Label Dust

It’s old news by this point, but the love of my life — Katharine McPhee — was dropped by J Records last week.
What’s peculiar about this decision is that her album didn’t do nearly as badly as Taylor’s, and I still say she had some upside commercially. Singles like “Love Story,” “Not Ur Girl” and [...]
